Certainly we all will think Poulon when we think weedeaters

I’m sure there are plenty of fun board meetings where the marketing director tries to sell the idea of buying bowl naming rights. Avocados of Mexico is a great ad sale IMO. Some of these other sales, I’d be curious how the returns are for the companies that try them.

Didn't we play USAFA in the Diamond Walnut Bowl?**
Happy Dog 12/18/23 07:01 AM ET
Based on some of the sponsors, I’d say the price for a low end bowl

Didn't he play guard for Greenberg?**
TomTurkey 12/18/23 10:40 AM ET
My bet, is the value on marketing has been naming been reduced
